How it works

Once you have read the below, accepted the T&Cs you will be contacted to start the verification process. This process is known as ‘Know Your Customer’ (KYC) security verification. The verification process is very easy, with no additional costs. Once that’s complete and you’ve been verified, you will be all setup and able to start taking payments. Payouts will only be sent to you after the booking is complete and the guest has checked out.
